One factor at a time approach was employed for the optimization of media components, physical factors and additional additives for lignin peroxidase (LiP) production under submerged fermentation by the endophytic fungus sp. The optimized conditions derived were: carbon source (dextrose 10 g/L), nitrogen source (ammonium tartarate 0.027 g/L), veratryl alcohol (1 mM), MnSO (0.

This article contains data regarding optimization of laccase production under solid state fermentation by the basidiomycetes fungi LA1.The data was collected by varying one factor at a time and keeping other factors of the system constant. Influence of environmental factors (substrate type, temperature, inoculums size, substrate weight, substrate length, pH), nutritional factors (organic and inorganic nitrogen sources, carbon sources, surfactants) and elicitors added to media was examined through the laccase activity of the extract.

Background: Fungal laccase has profound applications in different fields of biotechnology due to its broad specificity and high redox potential. Any successful application of the enzyme requires large scale production. As laccase production is highly dependent on medium components and cultural conditions, optimization of the same is essential for efficient product production.
